Watch out for this Leeds United player:

For this match, the player to watch will be Brendan Aaronson, current attacking midfielder for the United States and Leeds United. The youngster who defends the colors of the Peacocks has become a fundamental piece in the attack of Leeds United will again want to take the limelight of the match, as he does with his great performances in each day of the Premier League.

Watch out for this Manchester City player:

For this match, the player to watch will be the iconic center forward of the Citizens, the Norwegian Haaland. The current killer of the Citizen area has amazed all and sundry in the Premier League, since he arrived at Manchester City he started to break the nets and quickly took the overall scoring lead, taking a big lead over the other strikers. Haaland is a player with great strength and definition that makes him dangerous for opponents, so Leeds United will have to play a perfect defensive game if they want to nullify the Norwegian striker.

Need to climb up the table

On the other hand, Leeds United needs to get the victory in this restart of the season as they are currently in the relegation zone, which would send them to the Championship next season. Likewise, the points difference between the teams in the red zone and their pursuers is 1 or 2 points, so slackening the pace is not allowed. The Peacocks closed the first half of the season with 4 wins, 3 draws and 7 losses, totaling 15 points in all.

They want the lead

Manchester City needs to start a winning streak if they want to catch up with the Gunners and, if they have the chance, overtake them, since the overall leader, the Gunners are 5 points ahead of them and are aiming to extend their lead to secure the Premier League title as soon as possible. One of the issues to watch in Pep Guardiola's team is how they line up and how the players perform throughout the 90 minutes, as there were several players who participated in the Qatar 2022 World Cup and did not have the opportunity to rest because of the World Cup. Also, a factor that could play in favor of the citizens is the victory they had in midweek after facing Liverpool and eliminating them from the round of 16 of the Carabao Cup.

The Premier League returns

A whole month was what we had to wait for the return of the actions of the best league in the world; The Premier League. After the break due to the Qatar 2022 World Cup, the teams had to work with friendly matches and inter-squad sessions in order not to lose the individual and collective rhythm for the restart of the season. In this match, Leeds and Manchester City will face each other as part of the return of the Premier League actions, on the one hand, the Peacocks need to win at home and move up in the overall standings to continue aspiring to European places at the end of the season, on the other hand, Manchester City arrives as the overall runner-up looking to shorten Arsenal's lead and in one chance overtake them to once again position itself as the number 1 contender for the League title, however, it will be necessary to observe how the team led by Pep Guardiola resumes its activity as it was one of the teams that lent more players to the Qatar 2022 World Cup, although the midweek victory may be a good omen.
